Kanye really captured the essence of his idea with this beat. As someone who works hard and wants to just take off in a spaceship and be done with the world, I feel this beat is perfect with that idea.
@@faketap38206/8 is the time signature for music, means there is 6 beats per measure. Like in this song when the accented or louder beat goes off, you start to count the beats starting with 1 (louder beat), it goes until 6 then back to 1 where you hear that louder first beat again
This beat is the back drop of my life ...drugs prison violence more prison losing friends an family life is just fucked up I can't wait until some walks up behind me an put 1 in my head ....then I won't have to think about this hell on earth
I've been workin' this grave shift and I ain't made shit I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky I've been workin' this grave shift and I ain't made shit I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky Man, man, man If my manager insults me again I will be assaulting him After I fuck the manager up then I'm gonna shorten the register up Let's go back, back to the Gap Look at my check, wasn't no scratch So if I stole, wasn't my fault Yeah I stole, never got caught They take me to the back and pat me Askin' me about some khakis But let some black people walk in I bet they show off their token blacky Oh now they love Kanye, let's put him all in the front of the store Saw him on break next to the "No Smoking" sign with a blunt in the mall Takin' my hits, writin' my hits Writin' my rhymes, playin' my mind This fuckin' job can't help him So I quit, y'all welcome Y'all don't know my struggle Y'all can't match my hustle You can't catch my hustle You can't fathom my love dude Lock yourself in a room doin' five beats a day for three summers That's a different world like three summers I deserve to do these numbers The kid that made that deserves that Maybach So many records in my basement I'm just waitin' on my spaceship, blaow I've been workin' this grave shift and I ain't made shit I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky I've been workin' this grave shift and I ain't made shit I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky Man, I'm talkin' way past the sky Let's go, yeah And I didn't even try to work a job Represent the mob At the same time thirsty on the grind Chi state of mind Lost my momma, lost my mind My life, my love that's not mine Why you ain't signed? Wasn't my time Leave me alone, work for y'all Half of it's yours, half of it's mine Only one to ball Never wanna to fall Gotta get mine Gotta take mine Got a tech nine Reach my prime Gotta make these haters respect mine In the mall 'til 12 when my schedule headset nine Puttin' them pants shelves Waitin' patiently I ask myself Where I want to go, where I want to be Life is much more than runnin' in the streets Holla at 'ye, hit me with the beat Put me on my feet Sound so sweet Yes I'm the same ol' G, same goatee Stayin' low key, nope Holler at God "Man why'd you had to take my folks?" Hope to see Freddy G., Yusef G Love my G, Rolly G Police watch me smoke my weed and count my G's Got a lot of people countin' on me And I'm just tryin' to find my peace Should of finished school like my niece Then I wouldn't finally wouldn't use my piece, blaow Aw man, all this pressure I've been workin' this grave shift and I ain't made shit I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky I've been workin' this grave shift and I ain't made shit I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky I remember havin' to take the dollar cab Comin' home real late at night Standin' on my feet all damn day Tryin' to make this thing right And havin' one of my co-workers say "Yo you look just like This kid I seen in the old Busta Rhymes video the other night" Well easy come, easy go How that sayin' goes No more broad service, cars, and them TV shows I all had that snatched from me A and R's and their faculties all turn their back on me And didn't want to hear a rap from me So naturally actually had to face things factually Had to be a catastrophe with the fridgest starin' back at me 'Cause nothing's there, nothing's fair I don't want to ever go back there So I won't be takin' no days off 'til my spaceship takes off I've been workin' this grave shift and I ain't made shit I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky I've been workin' this grave shift and I ain't made shit I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky I want to fly, I want to fly I said I want my chariot to pick me up And take me brother for a ride
I swear on ERRRRRRRRTHING, as a 57 year old Black man in AmeriKKKa in the year 2023, this Kanye cut just hits different, especially when he said, "Lost my Mama, Lost my mind" My mind hasn't been right since I had witnessed my mom suffer and die from pancreatic cancer in 2008. I feel your pain Kanye.
